Based on MattScott's explanation of Phasing: That would be a no. Phasing in itself is a technique to help better matchmake the community as a whole rather than fetch opponents from the same district. Witnessing a Criminal is already specifically between the Enforcer and the Criminal. Witnessing is NOT a randomly-selected opponent and therefore doesn't fall under the umbrella of matchmaking and phasing. 1 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

For example. You're in financial en1, there're no any equal skill level players to match with you in your district, but, in financial en2 there're players with the same skill level. Depends on districts population you or your opponents will be moved in your or their district without any loading Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Would be great for APB though until its numbers aren't so low. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

There's... literally no downside to this kind of system, while having a bunch of upsides (primarily backend stuff, but noticeable to the end-user if they're paying attention).

Even with the current pop it will be much better than sticking to 40v40 instances. New players don’t know at all about advanced tab, so there’s high chance they will be moved in a silver district full of high end golds. It’s terrible for both sides. Golds will not get a proper match or keep sitting on missions without opponents and new players will get stomped hardly if the system decides to match them with vets. Phasing should be a top priority after engine upgrade Edited March 2 by Lign Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I've been an advocate for it for ages for APB. I said it helped ruin WoW. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
